When Martyn Lloyd-Jones was once preaching in the USA, he argued that the people of the South of any country were the finest and most advanced people in the country. He admitted he was from South Wales 
I acknowledge I heartily agree with him. But I have to admit I come from NZ's South Island

Annoying, because they pay so little for housing!
Most of my family is Southern, actually...
Only partly true...the Pittsburgh metro area has one of the lowest cost of housing of any major metro...and with the temps it is getting now, it is not in the South

A wa-wa sir, is a hyped up version of the convenience store/gas station. It's Turkey Hill on steroids. Great subs, cheapest gas, ect... They are great. Not as great as Sheetz, but close. 100% of Pennsylvanians run off of Wa-Wa coffee. In fact, I think one of our new president's desires is to see a wa-wa "on every corner."

I don't know what this says about Southerners, but in SC they have convenience stores called "Spinx." Only, the logo for the stores is an Egyptian sphinx, or at least it used to be.
Go figure.

Wow, as a southerner it makes me sort of sad to see that people would generalize southerners as annoying.

Although in their defense the options are somewhat limited.

It's not the people in the South so much as the Southern mentality...

I like all you guys!
There are no southerners or northerners you are all Westerners to me or maybe Easterners if you go the other way around

I'm still waiting for a Texas poll.

The East Coast is referred to as either Yankees or Northerners.
The South is distinguished as either Southerners or Texans if you are from Texas.
The Midwest occupies much of the center of the country's geography and they are "Midwesterners" or "Middle America".
Californians are appropriately addressed as either West Coasters, Left Coasters or Fruit Cakes.
Hawaii although technically a state is really just for vacation purposes and Alaska is simply Alaska.
